Buying Zuni Blankets.

As we entered the village everyone
there was busy doing something. Some
old squaws were sitting outside their
houses grooming snatches of Indian
songs in low, cultural tone, their
hands meanwhile moving with wonder
full rapidity, passing balls of colored
wooden thread backward and forward
between other threads which were
stretched vertically inside square
wooden frame. While we were watch
ing them some of the natives gathered
around, and one of Them, an old buck,
addressed us saying, in broken English:
"Halloo sojers; where goin'?" After
we had answered him to his satisfac-
ton we tried to find out what the
squaws were making, but we could not
get the desired information until we
had produced some tobacco and signi-
fed that if he would tell us we would
give him some. When the old fellow
saw the tobacco his face beamed with
smiles in an instant. and he replied:
"Ow, ow yes, yes] me like him mucho
livery much]. Tobacco heap bueno;"
(good); and when we had given him
some he said, pointing to the squaw:
Him make blanket; blanket heap
bueno; me 60 get him." and he disap-
peared inside one of the houses, return
ing almost Immediately with blanket
across his arm, which lie held up for
our inspection, saying: You like him?

it, Their blankets far excel those man

Prison Life In Siberia.

Prison life in Siberia is of many varie-
ties, according to the offense of different
individuals and the sentences which have
been decreed in their cases. The lowest
sentence is to simple Punishment for three
years. and the highest to hard labor for
life. The simple exile without imprison-
ment is appointed to live in certain
town, district or province, and must re-
port to the police at stated intervals. He
may engage in certain specified occupa-
tions, or rather in any occupation which
is not on o prohibited list; for example, he
may teach music or painting, but he may
not teach languages, as they afford the op-
portunity for propagating revolutionary
ideas. He may BECOME merchant, farmer,
mechanic, contractor or anything else of
that sort, and it not infrequently happens
that prison exiles enjoy degree of pros
perity in their new homes that they did
not have in European Russia. Exiles and
their sons have become millionaires in
Siberia; former Vanderbilt of Irkootsk,
the capital of Eastern Siberia, was the
son of an exile serf, his enormous fortune
having been gained in the overland tea
trade.
Many exiles become so attached to ST.
IBERIA that they remain there after their
term of Punishment is ended, but it should
be understood that their cases are the ex-
ceptions rather than the rule. The wife
and immature children of en- exile may
follow or accompany him at the expense Of
the government, but cannot return to
Europe until his term of service has ex-
pired. The object of exile is to furnish o
population to this sparsely inhabited re-
gion, and it goes without saying that o
family man is much more likely to be a
good citizen when his wife and children
are with him than when they are thou
sands of miles away. The name Of ''pris-
oner" Or "eXile'' is never applied to the
banished Individuals; in the language Of
the people they arc called s'unfortunates, :"
and in official documents they are termed
involuntary emigrants. Thomas w.

My father, present Of course, for he

In Alaska, up to comparatively modern
times, the dead have been mummified W.
H. Dali, in his recent work on The North
west Coast, tells us that within the last half
century bodies have been eviscerated, cleansed
from fatty matters in running waters, dried
and placed in cases, wrapped in fur and
woven grasses. The body was usually
doubled up into the smallest compass, and
the mummy case suspended, so as not to touch
the ground, in some convenient rock shelter.
Sometimes, however, the prepared body was
placed in lifelike position, dressed and
armed. Some were made to look as if en-
gagged in a congenial occupation, such as
hunting, fishing, sewing, etc. With them
were also placed efiigies of the animals they
were pursuing, while the hunter was decked
in his wooden armor and provided with an
enormous mask, all ornamented with feathers
and a countless variety of wooden pendants,
colored in gay patterns All the Alaska
mummies wear masks, so arranged that the
wearer, if erect, could only see the ground
at his feet. These were also worn at theiI
religious dances, from the belief that the
spirit which was supposed to animate TEN
porary idol was fatal to whoever might look
upon it while so occupied-New Yorl
